Tottenham Hotspur v Stoke City: match preview

Tottenham Hotspur v Stoke City: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

Both of these teams lost their opening-day games so it will be intriguing to see how they approach this match – will fear of another defeat take over or will a determination to get off to winning ways see an outbreak of attacking play? Either way, Stoke’s £12m signing Xherdan Shaqiri will not be involved due to a suspension carried over from his time playing for Internazionale. Sachin Nakrani
